Project: Ballin' on a budget

[blade]

I'm in New Mexico so shipping shouldn't be too bad.

Can you just get a 4r70w input shaft and switch it out? Never looked into it so might be a stupid suggestion.

That is the 4r70w yoke, found some aftermarket ones that doesn't have that

If you want to mail it to me I can take it off on the lathe for you.

Thank you but my dad has a mill and lathe at his house that I can trim it down with, I appreciate it though.

what did your old rear seat delete look like? i may be going that way...

This is about the best I could find, I built transition "wings" on each side and the bottom was roughly 5" high for the base.

Looking great Man!

looks pretty good- im trying to figure out how to make my side panels clear the mini tubs i built and box the rear area in without making it look awkward.

I'm not sure what tubs you used but I just pulled on mine real hard and reformed them a little by hand.

13" Cobra brake upgrade on 69 spindles with Vintage Venom adapters, caliper hardware in the mail so they aren't mounted yet.




Also I picked up some new seats in suede for a steal

Certainly fill out the wheels nicely.

Pushed this pig outside, tossed some interior together and did a little cleaning. I am going to modify the fox seat brackets to work for my needs.

Car looks great outside and I really love the rear end modifications.

[LowFast]

Sweet fade job, it is always hard to get the fade into black to look good but you nailed it!

+1!
For a "pig" I sure do like the look of that rear end.

The seats look great in there too. And the wheels.....It is coming together really well.

Thanks guys, coming from y'all that's a big compliment. It'll get there, it's only time and money.

[I_make_oil]

Looking nice.

[LowFast]

Is it running? I want to come by and check it out some time. Especially since my project has been stalled out for awhile. Of course, I could have you come by and push my car down the street while I sit in it and make engine noises.

[Mach1_Ron]

Me too. You aren't too far away. And if you have it running remember the Sam Pack Museum Show is May 7th....

[LowFast]

Sounds like we have invited our selves over to your place. I will bring the beer.

[Z06killinSBF]

Come on! but no, it's not running. The motor is basically just mocked up, it needs to come out to finish the engine bay and I may put new rings and bearings in it since these are 30 years old.

LowFast, lets rent a double trailer and have your F150 tow both cars to a show.... since we are doing self-invites and all.

[LowFast]

That might just work, only issue is that you would be towed by a Ram, traded in the F150 a couple of years ago for a 2014 Ram 1500. Can you rent double trailers?
